Toyota will help test a fast hydrogen fueling station in Dubai, state oil company Abu Dhabi National Oil said.
The station will test “clean” hydrogen-fuel fleet vehicles supplied in part by Toyota.
Its fleet models will be used at what oil company says is Middle East’s first high-speed refueler.

Toyota, under its former longtime chief executive, Akio Toyoda, has taken a more gradual approach to electric-vehicle production than many legacy automakers, saying it represented a “silent majority” in the industry who looked on a fast transition from the internal combustion engine to electric as unwise. His successor, Koji Sato, though, has said he’ll move Toyota to an “EV-first mindset.”
